The Christmas elves have settled in at World of Discoveries and brought some mischief with them. Scattered throughout various spaces, these little characters promise to surprise visitors with unexpected pranks. This initiative invites attention to detail and adds a playful element to the experience, especially for the younger ones.
Christmas is also synonymous with sharing and togetherness. That’s why World of Discoveries has prepared a Message Tree, where everyone is invited to write their wishes, thoughts, or Christmas messages on a paper ball and hang it on the branches. The tree will be filled with words and emotions, becoming a collective reflection of the spirit of this season.
The World of Discoveries Christmas voucher is an excellent suggestion for those who prefer to give experiences rather than objects. An educational and cultural gift, suitable for all ages, which can be enjoyed at any time of the year.
Throughout December, the Museum invites all visitors to experience Christmas in a different way, in an encounter between culture, fun, and festive spirit.

O projeto de investimento em apreço consubstancia-se na criação de um empreendimento de animação turística, uma exposição interativa assente numa componente lúdico-cultural, subordinado à temática dos descobrimentos portugueses. Esta recriação da rota dos descobrimentos portugueses permite aos seus visitantes navegar, através de um canal de água concebido para o efeito, ao longo dos caminhos marítimos desbravados pelos exploradores/conquistadores portugueses à descoberta de novas rotas de comércio.
Este projeto assume um elevado carácter inovador reunindo um conjunto apreciável de fatores de inovação/diferenciação e revela-se integrador de um conjunto de variáveis-chave para a concretização de uma oferta ao público-alvo fortemente diferenciadora e pautada pela qualidade e excelência.
Um projeto único a nível nacional e internacional, combina a oferta de uma experiência lúdica e empolgante para os visitantes com um caráter pedagógico e cultural relevante, que converte o legado histórico português num fator de competitividade e potenciação do turismo interno e externo assente na valorização dos nossos recursos endógenos.
